Linuxgsm: Rust won't start on Fresh Install

[bobey6]

• Fresh Install on Debian 9.3 Stretch (Also tried Ubuntu 16.04)
• Install dependencies sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386; sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install mailutils postfix curl wget file bzip2 gzip unzip bsdmainutils python util-linux ca-certificates binutils bc tmux lib32gcc1 libstdc++6 libstdc++6:i386 lib32z1
• Create 'rust' user
• Login as 'rust' user
• git clone https://github.com/GameServerManagers/LinuxGSM.git
• ./linuxgsm.sh rust
• ./rustserver install
• ./rustserver start

At this point, it fails.. I had initially thought it was an LD_LIBRARY path problem but couldn't fix it.. I've tried both Ubuntu & Debian (both from OVH) and get the same results. Any idea what I'm doing wrong? I've included the logs below.

Thank you in advance!

I'll leave this one open since it's well made contrarily to the other ones.

But once and for all: This is most likely something that needs to be fixes by Facepunch. Please, go complain to them. This issue is a general issue. Wether you use LGSM or not.

Couple of possible workarounds in here:

Bobey6,

I fixed the issue by:

In your lgsm/config-lgsm/rustserver/rustserver.cfg replace
executable="./RustDedicated"
with:
executable="LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:${homeDir}/serverfiles/RustDedicated_Data/Plugins/x86_64 ./RustDedicated"

The above worked for me as well.

[UltimateByte]

As usual, i'm on it and will try to fix Facepunch's unprofessionalism.

[UltimateByte]

Fix published on master branch. Works for Debian 9. Please test it out and feedback.

[RMefisto]

Works for me on Debian 8. Good work !!!

[UltimateByte]

Thanks!
You can also thank @gaillafr , this fix was inspired by his post. https://github.com/GameServerManagers/LinuxGSM/issues/1813#issuecomment-367890099

[RMefisto]

Done m8 :)

[UltimateByte]

Hehe :p

Updated LGSM on Centos 7

The server starts now, all the way to spawning the Bradley

Oxide is also updated but now the Csharp compiler fails.
Plugins don't get loaded
I removed oxide, installed it again - updated it again and again
Compiler still fails

Maybe oxide needs a fix? Just asking

I googled for the error and got nothing yet

[fosspill]

No issue with that for me.

[UltimateByte]

Interesting, thanks for the feedback @FredSaltyNuts , that's good to know it also works for CentOS.
I'll try reaching Wolf from Oxide about that if he's still active.

[UltimateByte]

@FredSaltyNuts They are already aware, check this: https://oxidemod.org/threads/couldnt-check-for-update-to-csharpcompiler-exe.29609/

[FredSaltyNuts]

Yeah I think I got this now.

I grabbed the latest build from
https://github.com/OxideMod/CSharpCompiler/releases

Placed it into the serverfiles folder
chmod 744

Now the plugins are loading again :)

This was a hard day for Rust populations...
Hang in there guys, and thanks for the help

[UltimateByte]

Lol @FredSaltyNuts Not the first, and probably not the last something like that happens. I added support for Rust around 2 years ago, this is maybe the 3rd or 4th time that Facepunch breaks everything. Once, start parameters changed, then i think a new glibc was required, then we had to set the library path, and now we have to set it a different way... The """"funny"""" thing is this time, the website happened to be down at the same time. :o))
Of course, every single time, Facepunch provides 0 info about the changes, and the community has to find workarounds to fix their crap.

PS: And now https://oxidemod.org/ is unavailable :o))

[FredSaltyNuts]

Still getting lots of errors..
I sure hope Facepunch grow up soon..

EDIT:
Scratch that - I had file ownership mistakes because I'm an idiot..

Fixed. You can mark this closed. Thank you :)
